		Chopped strand mat, in fabric form, is sold on the roll and in small folded packages.
		The texture of the chopped strand mat is quite rough given its random fibers (many of which come loose when epoxy is applied).
		The random oriented strands are held together with light stitching, which runs parallel to the length of the roll and is spaced about 3/16" to 1/4" apart over the width of the roll.

	Composites One - Basics
		Fiber strands from the filament cake are used to produce roving and chopped fiberglass.
		Stronger than chopped-strand, continuous-strand mat is formed by swirling continuous strands of fiber onto a moving belt, finished with a chemical binder to hold fibers in place.
		Continuous-strand mat is primarily used in compression molding, resin transfer molding, pultrusion, fabricated platforms and stampable thermoplastic applications.

		Chopped strand mat is commonly used in laminates due to ease of wet out, the good bond provided between layers of woven roving or cloth and is comparatively low in cost.
		Chopped strand mat is categorized by weight per square foot, has two feathered edges and is sold by the running yard or in bulk by the kilogram in full rolls.
		A layer of chopped strand mat is used between each layer of roving to fill the coarse weave when more than one layer is required.

	Are They Fiberglass Boats Anymore? by David Pascoe, Marine Surveyor
		One good example is a Sea Ray where the hull side had ONE layer of woven roving, two thin layers of chopped strand mat, and all the rest of the laminate was some kind of brittle putty.
		For this reason, chopped strand is not considered as a structural fiber.
		Chopped strand mat (CSM) is still used on all boats to prevent the weave pattern of fabrics like roving from showing on the gel coat surface.

	Epoxy Systems - Laminating - Frequently Asked Questions
		Firstly CSM is used to reinforce the resin in GRP structure, where the resin usually makes up two thirds of the GRP and takes as much of the load as the glass fibre.
		The primarily role of the epoxy is to hold the fibres in place and transfer the load evenly across the fibres, which bear the majority of the load.
		The open nature of CSM means that it is very difficult to achieve a high fibre volume fraction.

	Other Fabrics used in Polymeric Composite Materials
		Chopped strand mat (CSM) is a non-woven material which, as its name implies, consists of randomly oriented chopped strands of glass which are held together — for marine applications - by a PVA emulsion or a powder binder.
		Despite the fact that PVA imparts superior draping handling and wetting out characteristics users in a marine environment should be wary of its use as it is affected by moisture and can lead to osmosis like blisters.
		Today, chopped strand mat is rarely used in high performance composite components as it is impossible to produce a laminate with a high fibre content and, by definition, a high strength-to-weight ratio.
